The Spurious Nib's St. Patrick's Day 2020

St. Patrick's other brother.
You’ve never read about Patrick’s half brother, Saint Barry. By all The Spurious Nib's accounts Barry should also be celebrated. 


While Patrick was busy chasing snakes with his shamrock, 
Barry noticed Ireland’s health might be in danger. Acting on his own instinct Barry secured a shipment of whiskey and drove the barrels out of the ship and into Sean O' Kepler’s Pub!

The Spurious Nib’s Sports Report


The Spurious Nib’s Sports Reporter, Hammond Headley, has a developing story. 
We brought you the story in January of Penelope Just who began the task of reading the entire Bible in the new year. And how she had a bit of trouble around Genesis 10:26.
It has now developed into a sport as her brother Walter has began reading his bible and is determined to race ahead and finish by November!
More details to follow.

Happy Purim!

The Spurious Nib Remembers Purim. 
Do You?
Perhaps you have read the whole book of Esther. Perhaps you remember that so-and-so guy who wanted to exterminate all the Jewish people in Persia. There was Uncle  Mordecai who reminded Esther she had been given a place and purpose (as the wife of the King Ahasuerus) to bring salvation to G_s people. Perhaps you also recall Esther had won a beauty contest. 
The Spurious Nib has discovered one young lady who placed fifth in that contest, Peggy. Thanks to Esther’s obedience, Peggy went on to marry Morey Korman. Morey owned the Shushan Oriental Fabric Company Ltd. They had five boys and eventually retired in Hamat Gader.

The Spurious Nib President’s Day

It is true, President Cleveland was the only president to serve two non-consecutive terms (22nd & 24th). What you will never learn is how Cleveland really beat Benjamin Harrison the 23rd President of the United States.

Cleveland's mockingbird, Moocher, flew into Harrison’s White House bedroom window every night and whispered, "More tariffs, more tariffs." Thus Moocher ensured Grover Cleveland's unprecedented win over President Harrison!

Valentine Nibs, The Day After!

Any no talent hack can write Spurious things on Valentine's Day. Knowing most of our readers are suffering after-effects from all the Valentine celebrations it is with fond affection we note a few spurious things that have happened the day after Valentine's Day.

In Yaroslavl, Soviet Union, Comrade Marusya Orlov said, “Yes” to Comrade Arkady Moroz on Valentine's Day! The day after Valentines Day he submitted a plan to Vladimir Lenin whereby he would place a red star on the tallest structure in town so all communist would know it as the best place to honeymoon.
The day after Valentine's Day, Japan, 493A.D. 
Village heartthrob, Buraban Tomukyatto sang a love ballad to the beautiful Yuki Akemi. When Buraban was finished Yuki said, “Every bird loves to hear himself sing.”
The day after Valentine's Day in 1924, Teddy Ford tried unsuccessfully to give Jenifer Clayton back the “be my Valentine puppy” she had given him the day before.
Parthena Bergere Bleue enjoyed walking all her cats (including Miss Toe Beans) every day after  Valentines day.
In 1897 Ethel Truquer kidnapped the Château Dans L'Herbe's chocolatier and ate an entire tray of his famous Valentine Cygnes en chocolat. She was put in jail the day after Valentines day.
The day after Valentine's Day Odysseus realized he should have dated Bast, the Egyptian cat Goddess instead of the enchantress Circe.
